I am so proud to have been asked several times to join the lovely Anoushka Williams on her amazing BBC Podcast Mum’s without Makeup:
I recommend this podcast for its honesty and authenticity, whilst being a great listen, and confirming YOU ARE NOT ALONE
Motherhood, with all its joys and rewards, can sometimes feel overwhelmingly lonely. The challenges and responsibilities that come with being a mother can create an isolating experience, leaving many women feeling alone despite being surrounded by their loved ones.
There is no need to traverse this journey in solitude. One invaluable resource I recommend to all my female clients who are mothers is the podcast "Mum’s without Makeup." This podcast serves as an invisible friend in the room, offering support, camaraderie, and a sense of connection that many mothers crave.
"Mum’s without Makeup" is not just any podcast; it stands out for its honesty and authenticity. The hosts speak candidly about the realities of motherhood, sharing personal stories and experiences that resonate deeply with listeners. This raw and real approach creates an environment where mothers feel understood and validated.
I like to think of it as your Invisible Friend
The podcast acts like an invisible friend who has your back, providing comfort and reassurance. Whether you are navigating sleepless nights, juggling work and family life, or simply seeking a moment of solidarity, "Mum’s without Makeup" is there to accompany you through the highs and lows.
For every mother feeling the weight of loneliness, this podcast is a beacon of hope and connection. It is a reminder that you are not alone in your struggles and triumphs. The conversations are relatable and empowering, offering practical advice and emotional support.
So, if you are searching for a source of companionship and understanding, tune in to "Mum’s without Makeup." Let this podcast be your invisible friend, guiding you through the beautiful yet challenging journey of motherhood with honesty and realness.
